MVP MMA Netflix Adds Nate Diaz vs Mike Perry — But Is It a Real Promotion or a Pro Wrestling Spot Show?
The MVP MMA Netflix card on May 16 keeps getting bigger. Nate Diaz vs Mike Perry now joins Ronda Rousey vs Gina Carano and Francis Ngannou vs Philipe Lins in a star-studded triple headliner at the Intuit Dome.

Meanwhile, Khamzat Chimaev vs Sean Strickland has been confirmed for UFC 328 in Newark, and the hosts break down Murphy vs Evloev at UFC London.
UFC Freedom 250 Exposes the UFC’s Broken Promise Machine
The UFC promised us the greatest card in history for the White House event. Six or seven title fights. Jon Jones. Conor McGregor. Francis Ngannou.
